  • Mar-20-2013 I am accepted here and planning to attend soon

    I have been to George Mason multiple times since deciding I would like to enroll here next August, and the Mason Staff has been nothing but kind to me. The admissions board has always responded to me promptly and been more than willing to accept any and every problem I've thrown at them. I can't wait to come next fall and become a part of the Mason Nation.

    George Mason has a beautiful Multicultural campus, with lots of Greek life and fun for those who choose not to participate in those type of events. There is a numerous amount of work opportunities on campus. along with activities and recreational events, there is a tremendous amount of support here such as Tudors etc.
